Linus waits in the pumpkin patch for the elusive Halloween symbol to appear.

I’m listening to Gregorian monks while I code. (Thank goodness some non-spyware net radio stations are still functional! 🙂 ) It somehow seems rather appropriate. I can just imagine a group of monks up until all hours of the night trying to get the gospels to be just right in song so that the information will parse correctly. Will HTML, VB or Visual C be considered art 700 years from now?

*note to self, bring dsl modem back to the house, this dialup from home is sooooo sloooow.
